“Tom leaves messes all
over the house and doesn’t
clean them up.”
“Susan has older friends
who are into truancy, and
she stays out late most
nights.”
Sound familiar? These ex-
amples of teen behavior
which parents find ex-
asperating are discussed in
an article in the May issue of
“PTA Today” National
PTA’s magazine, which fo-
cuses on “Strengthening the
Family.”
Writing in “PTA Today,”
psychologists Robert T. and
Jean Bayard give parents
practical advice on how to
deal with their acting-up
teenager. The Bayards sug-
gest six steps for parents to
take in order to help them-
selves be comfortable with
their teenager’s emerging
identity.
—“Realize you are not
helpless and need not put up
with a situation that is mis-
erable for you,” say the
Bayards. Try to bring about
changes in your own life
which will make you happy.
—Write down all the things
that your teenager does that
irritate you—talks back, ex-
plodes when he or she can’t
have the car. Separate these
items into two stacks—items
that affect only my teen-
ager’s life; items that affect
me.
—Regarding the teenag-
er’s life items, “let the teen-
ager know that from now on
you will trust him or her to
make decisions,” say the
Bayards who have raised 5
teenagers themselves. Teens
seem more inclined to make
choices their parents like
when they are not pushed to
do so.
—Do not waver in your
decision even if your teen-
ager tests you. Some teens
will accept the responsibility
for their own actions. Others
may try to shift the decision-
making back to you. You can
deal with this behavior by
repeating your belief in your
child’s powers of judgment.
Kangaroo reached 20
The longest a kangaroo
is known to have lived is 20
years. That was one in a
Washington, D C., zoo.
—Take care of yourself.
Begin by determining what
rights would be fair for you
to have in the family, and
what is fair in relationships
between people. The authors
provide a possible list of
parents’ rights.
—After determining what
rights would be fair for you
to have, be prepared to stand
up for them.
If parents follow these
steps in the order suggested,
the authors believe problem
behaviors will improve. The
article in the May issue of
“PTA Today” is based on the
Bayard’s book, “How to Deal
with Your Acting-Up Teen-
“I treat my
policyholders like
individuals,
not numbers...
each one has
different insurance
needs.”
